The Wildewood Drive park

The Huckleberry and Summer

more space has begun.

“We're running at full capacity.

Lynnfield is rapidly turning

Dolan anticipates the discussion

Social Security for minor

children, Part One

If you have minor children

at home, Social Security benefits

may be available to them.

Know these rules and get maximum

benefits for your family.

It is not so unusual today

for a person eligible for Social

Security retirement benefits

to have young children. Once

the parent files for benefits, a

minor child may also qualify

for Social Security dependent

benefits. The child can be a

natural child, an adopted child,

or a stepchild.

Each child may receive 50

percent of the parent’s primary

insurance amount (PIA) up

to the family maximum. The

benefit may continue until the

child is 18, or 19 if still in high

school.

Example: Don is age 66 and

has a PIA of $2,400. He has one

child, Diane, who is 10. Once

Don files for his benefit, Diane

may receive a dependent benefit

of 50 percent of Don’s PIA,

or $1,200. This benefit may

continue until Diane turns 18.

Note that it will be necessary

for the parent to file for his own

benefit in order for the child

to receive benefits. Because it

is often recommended that the

higher-earning spouse delay

benefits to age 70 to maximize

both the retirement benefit and

the survivor benefit for the surviving

spouse, this creates a

conflict:

Do you file early and take a

reduced benefit so you can start

benefits for the child?

Or do you file at the optimal

time for your own lifetime benefit

even if it means missing

out on a few years of children’s

benefits?

We have analyzed this and

concluded that the optimal

strategy is to delay benefits.

Filing at 62 would cause the

primary earner’s benefit to be

reduced to such an extent that

the extra years of children’s

benefits would not make up for

the loss in lifetime benefits for

the worker and his surviving

spouse. Remember, when one

spouse dies, the couple’s lower

benefit will stop, and the higher

of the two benefits will continue.

The surviving spouse will

need a high survivor benefit

to maintain their standard of

living.

If your child is receiving a

benefit based on your record,

your spouse may be able to

receive a benefit for having a

child in care. The child-in-care

benefit is generally 50 percent

of your PIA until the child turns

16.

There are two issues that

could cause benefits to be reduced.

One is the earnings

test. The other is the family

maximum.

Most parents of minor children

must continue to work.

(There is college to save for,

after all.) If a parent files for

his benefit before full retirement

age, some or all of his

benefit – and all other benefits

paid on his record – may

be withheld for the earnings

test. Filing at full retirement

age or later avoids this mandatory

withholding of benefits.

Furthermore, any child-in-care

benefits paid to the spouse

may be withheld if the spouse

works. Not much can be done

about this: If the spouse is

under full retirement age and

works, some or all of the childin-care

benefit may be withheld.

However, depending

on how the family maximum

comes into play, it may behoove

the spouse to forego the

child-in-care benefit to make

more benefits available to the

children.

There is a maximum amount

of dependent benefits that

can be paid on each person’s

earnings record. This is called

the maximum family benefit

(MFB) and it is shown on your

Social Security statement. It’s

generally about 150 percent to

180 percent of your PIA. Here’s

how it works: Your PIA is subtracted

from the MFB to determine

the amount of benefits that

can be paid to family members.

In Part Two, I will go over

some specific situations you

might encounter when you have

minor children drawing social

security benefits.

to church teaching).

One of the projects involves

Catholic Charities Child Care

Center of Lynn.

“The majority of children

served (at Catholic Charities)

are foster children,” said

Christine Feeney Breslow,

whose daughter Sarah’s group

came up with the idea. “The

center is in constant need

of supplies, mainly diapers,

Pull-Ups, wipes, toothbrushes,

underwear, socks, crib sheets

and hats and mittens.”

Other projects include

collecting supplies for the

Plummer Youth Promise in

Salem, which offers residential

programs, including one to

house young men and women

referred by juvenile court, and

a foster care program.

Others are collecting for

the Northeast Animal Shelter,

Girls Inc. of Lynn (where candidates

served a Thanksgiving

dinner last November as well

as continuing to tutor members.

Some are collecting

fleece blanket for patients at

Children’s Hospital in Boston.

Also involved is a project to

collect socks and diapers for

state child services. Some of

the teens have chosen to go

into nursing homes to visit the

elderly patients there, while

others are collecting books to

give to elementary school students

in Lynn.

Others are extending their

services closer. One group has

chosen to be in charge of the

children’s liturgy of the word

on Sundays in the two parishes.

“I wanted these students to

see what it’s like to be kind,”

Yannone said, “to do unto

others what you would want

done to you.

“How does it make you feel

when you’ve done something

kind? Do you feel happy? Sad?

“They really seem to have

worked it out,” Yannone said.

“They see how it all relates

to our faith. As Catholics, we

are supposed to live the Ten

Commandments.”

Yannone said that all the

groups got to pick their own activities.

There were some suggestions

made, Breslow said,

but the candidates also got to

come up with their own ideas.

For example, Breslow “in my

former life, before I had children,”

worked in the field of

charitable giving in Boston.

“Catholic Charities was always

on our radar,” she said.

“My daughter and her friends

are at that age where they’re all

into babysitting and working

with kids. Sarah and I came up

with the agency, and pitched

the idea to the rest of the girls

in the group.”

Sarah Breslow’s group

worked on donations through

December by, among other

things, asking friends and relatives

for donations and putting

out messages on social

media. They are now waiting

for a date where they can drop

the donations off to the facility

in Lynn.

“I couldn’t be prouder of

them,” Yannone said, “and one

of the reasons is that they’re

pretty proud of themselves.

“Some of them have helped

their elderly neighbors who

cannot get out of the house,”

she said. “The point of the

project is to teach them how to

live their faith.”

The increase is obvious and

NESDEC will sketch out

Dolan said it’s not too soon for

“The next step is decision

how do we fix it?” Dolan said.

To the town’s credit, Dolan

said Lynnfield has a good track

record tackling school space

needs in a timely fashion. The

past decade saw the town address

School officials pitch $27.5 million budget for 2021

Meeting the needs of all

students.

That's the message School

Superintendent Jane Tremblay

wants to deliver with her proposed

$27,530,266 budget for

the spending year that begins

on July 1.

“Our Fiscal Year 2021 priorities

are crystal clear and always

have been, and that is to address

the needs of all students,” said

Tremblay, who was assisted by

Finance Director Tom Geary

in preparing the spending plan.

“We need to proactively address

social and emotional needs and

for that we need continued

growth for educators and support

staff to continue building

leadership capacity. Everything

you hear tonight will tie back to

those building blocks.”

The budget represents an increase

of 6.4 percent over the

current FY 20 budget and includes

several new teaching positions,

including a kindergarten

teacher and paraprofessional at

the Summer Street School; an

elementary special education

chairperson; two elementary

school adjustment counselors;

a media center assistant at

Lynnfield Middle School; one

district-wide English Language

Learners (ELL) teacher; one

full-time technology support

position and three part-time

technology/media assistants.

The budget also includes a

$250,000 technology capital

request to replace outdated

Chromebooks at the middle

and elementary schools, upgrade

teacher laptops and

docking stations at the middle

school and replace Smart

Boards and document cameras

district-wide. Tremblay also

asked for $20,000 to replace the

phone system at Summer Street

and $30,000 to replace the bell

system at the high school.

Tremblay said the addition

of another kindergarten teacher

at Summer Street is necessary

in order to adhere to class size

guidelines which call for no

more than 18-22 students in

kindergarten and first grade.

Currently Summer Street has

69 kindergarteners spread over

four sections. Tremblay said

that they expect 92 kindergarten

students in 2020-2021.

“This is positively imperative

and is almost non-negotiable,”

Hit the ice at MarketStreet

for February break

said Tremblay. “With 92 incoming

kindergarteners even

if we go down by four or five,

we still need a fifth classroom.

Never in my 33 years have there

been more than four sections at

each school.”

The district is currently wrapping

up work on a feasibility

study to address concerns over

a spike in student population

that has put a premium on class

space and size.

“Hopefully we will have

more information when the

architect can tell us what our

options are as we are all wondering

where we are going to

put these kids,” said committee

member Tim Doyle. “This may

not be just a blip, it might be

the new norm.”

Tremblay said an elementary

school special education chairperson

is necessary in order to

redress unmanageable caseloads

and to provide oversight

and programming across both

elementary schools. New state

coordination and documentation

requirements are also a factor.

Tremblay has requested two

elementary school adjustment

counselors to address a spike

in the number of younger students

with social and emotional

learning issues.

“This is a phenomenon, a

real crisis, that has come out

of nowhere,” said committee

member Jamie Hayman. “We

need to put some data behind

this to find out how many kids

are actually in crisis.”

Committee member Phil

McQueen noted that both elementary

school principals

spend a great part of their day

dealing with psychological and

emotional issues because the

schools are not equipped with

adjustment counselors.

Tremblay said that trained

adjustment counselors will help

support students struggling with

depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar

disorder, oppositional disorder

and autism spectrum disorders,

and would also be a huge

benefit for teachers and administrators

who are not specialists in

mental health crisis intervention.

An explosion in the number

of ELL students is the basis

for adding a district-wide ELL

teacher. In one year, the district

has gone from 42 to 54 students

and in two years the number of

languages in the district has increased

from 19 to 25.

Tremblay said those numbers

are likely to continue to increase.

“Some kids are coming in

with no English at all,” said

Tremblay. "We are struggling to

meet these needs.”

Tremblay also requested one

full-time technology support

position and three part-time

assistants.

“If we could get this in the

media centers at the elementary

and middle schools, our

one full-time digital learning

coach (Sarah Perkins) could

actually do her job in digital

learning and be freed up to

help the teachers more and

not trouble shooting every day

computer needs, like ‘how do I

get my computer on?’ Adding

these positions frees her up to

do what she was hired to do.”

One of the regions most

popular outdoor skating rinks,

the MarketStreet Rink features

a classic 50 by 100 foot

skating area with a warming

hut to ensure skaters and spectators

stay toasty in even the

chilliest of weather.

Located on The Green, the

heart of MarketStreet’s community

events and gatherings,

near lululemon, J.Crew and

Zinneken’s Belgian Waffles, the

rink will be extending its hours

for February school break.

It will also host two special

Art Guild

presents

Nan Rumpf

WEEKLYNEWS.NET - 978-532-5880 FEBRUARY 6, 2020

The Lynnfield Art Guild

(LAG) is proud to announce

that its 56th season continues

with Nan Rumpf, water media

artist, on Thursday, Feb. 20, 7

p.m. in the all-purpose room

at the Lynnfield Senior Center,

525 Salem St.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

for refreshments and socializing.

Nan Rumpf’s painting

methods are highly creative

and her work ranges from

representational watercolor to

collage and mixed media. She

has worked as a visiting artist

in local colleges and in public

schools and for twenty years

was a professional puppeteer.

The artist studied watercolor

painting with Susan Swinand,

Charles Reid, Miles Batt, and

Cheng Khee Chee. She is the

recipient of many awards, including

the Golden Award at

the NEWS national juried show

in Gloucester, and recently she

had a painting accepted into the

American Watercolor Society’s

International Juried Exhibition

in New York City.

Rumpf is an exhibiting

member of the Wellesley

Society of Artists, an artist

member of the Rhode Island

Watercolor Society, and a signature

member of the New

England Watercolor Society.

Her paintings have been exhibited

at, among other prestigious

art venues: the Danforth

Museum in Framingham, The

Center for Arts in Natick,

The Concord Art Association,

The Attleboro Arts Museum,

the New England Watercolor

Society's Show and The Art

Complex Museum in Duxbury.

She gives workshops around

the Boston area and teaches

classes in her home studio in

Wellesley and can be accessed

on line at www.NanRumpf.com.

“The process of painting

is what most fascinates me.

I like to see how watercolors

and other water media react

to different painting surfaces

and interact with each other.

Experimenting with different

methods to obtain accidental

texture appeals to me. These

experiments give me something

to respond to and motivate me

to continue experimenting as I

develop each painting keeping

in mind line, shape and composition.

Making one change often

strongly suggests the next,”

stated Rumpf.

The public is encouraged

to join the Guild members for

this demonstration of art with

refreshments and artistic company

for $5 (non-member fee)

6:30-9:30 p.m.

Membership in the Lynnfield

Art Guild, open to artisans,

photographers, artists, and art

appreciators with student and

family memberships available,

includes free attendance at all

demonstrations, the ability to

show and sell art in the fall

and spring shows, and many

other benefits. Please visit our

High school extends

a guiding hand

WEEKLYNEWS.NET - 978-532-5880 7

Captain Karl calling it quits

High school guidance counselors

are offering evening and

daytime planning sessions for

students preparing for admission

tests and college applications —

and a program for parents.

Breakfast with Guidance has

three sessions planned for the balance

of the school year to provide

parents with information on different

aspects of the high school

experience in a relaxed and collegial

setting. All sessions are held

in the faculty dining room from

9:30-10:30 a.m.

The Feb. 7 session is focused

on standardized testing and the

role that it plays in the college

admissions process. Counselors

will discuss American College

Testing and Scholastic

Assessment Test composition

and but the role that the tests

play in the college process.

On April 3, a senior panel

will discuss how they survived

their high school years with the

goal of helping parents start

and guide discussions with high

school-age children.

Welcoming incoming ninth

grade families will be the topic

on June 12 with an introduction

to high school in an informal

open forum.

The guidance is also offering

three evening programs over the

next few months with each scheduled

in the high school auditorium,

275 Essex St., at 6:30 p.m.

Junior Planning Night is

Thursday, Feb. 6 with a snow

date of Feb. 11. This event is

a "must attend" for any family

who will be experiencing the

post-high school planning process

for the first time with their

juniors. This evening is loaded

with important information and

"insider tips" about what lies

ahead in the process.

Sophomore Planning Night is

Tuesday, March 10. The Family

Connections/Naviance program

that the counselors will introduce

to all sophomores during

their classroom presentation

will be discussed. In addition,

the process of post-high school

planning will be discussed.

College Rep Panel Night will

be held Thursday, May 14. A

panel of admissions representatives

from a variety of schools

to which our students typically

apply will discuss national

trends in college admissions as

well as strategies and tips for

the application process in general.

This program is open to

all families and students are encouraged

to attend.

For questions regarding any

of these sessions or any general

questions about the guidance department,

feel free to f you have

a question regarding any of these

six programs or any offering

of the Lynnfield High School

Guidance Department should

feel free to contact the department

office at 781-334-5823.

Police Department second-in-command

Capt. Karl

Johnson hung up his uniform

for the last time last Friday and

got a retirement send off from

two dozen colleagues.

“He will be extremely hard

to replace. There is not a job in

the department he couldn't do,”

said Chief David Breen.

Johnson joined the Lynnfield

department in 2002 after

working 16 years with the Lynn

Police Department. Promoted

to sergeant in 2005, the

Newburyport resident has been

a captain for 10 years. With 22

officers and more than 10 square

miles of neighborhoods and

roads to patrol, Johnson said the

job presented challenges more

than offset by town residents he

met during his career.

“I met really great people,”

he said.

Johnson's retirement comes

during a busy time for the

department.

A radio site upgrade, a new

keyscan system and a new

telephone system are department

equipment upgrade priorities

for the upcoming budget

round. Breen told the Board

of Selectmen last month that

the department has proposed

splitting the $97,000 radio site

upgrade with the fire department.

Breen said this is the final

year of the five-year project,

replacing dated copper wiring

with fiber optics.

PHOTO | THOR JOURGENSEN

The keyscan system project

calls for complete replacement of

the 10-year-old system at a cost of

$23,000, which will also be split

50-50 with the fire department.

A new telephone system, with

a price tag of $22,000 to be split

with the fire department, ranked

third in priority.

Breen is also asking for a new

Chevy Tahoe police cruiser at a

cost of $39,897.24. He also wants

to replace four computers with

Windows 10 operating systems

for the station at a cost of $7,000

and two mobile computers with

compatible software for the

cruisers at a cost of $6,000.

It’s off to Endicott for Clay Marengi

By Daniel Kane

LYNNFIELD — A lot has changed

for Lynnfield’s Clayton Marengi in the

last year.

A three-sport athlete, Marengi went into

his senior year heartset on finding a place

to focus on his baseball career in college.

Then a funny thing happened.

He had a breakout and record-breaking

football season as the Pioneers’ quarterback

last fall, prompting Marengi to do

an about face and has trade in the diamond

for the gridiron after committing

to play football at Endicott College.

Marengi rewrote the Pioneers record

books this past fall, setting the program’s

single season record in passing touchdowns

(31) and passing yards (2,542).

Marengi also led Lynnfield with 251

rushing yards. The historic season not

only caught the eyes of coaches around

the Cape Ann League, but gathered attention

from across the state.

In December, Marengi was named CAL

Baker Division Offensive Player of the Year.

He also received the Daily Item Agganis

Offensive Player of the Year award.

Last week, Marengi was named to the

Massachusetts High School Football

Coaches Association All-Star team.

Only 26 players from across the state

are selected to the team each year and

Marengi, who is quick to credit his success

on the football field to his coaches,

never thought he’d be one of them.

“It’s crazy, the feeling is surreal,”

Marengi said. “And it couldn’t have

been possible without our coaches at

Lynnfield. I was shocked when I first

found out to be honest. But again, all the

credit goes to my coaches. They played

a huge part in making this past year possible.

They gave me the confidence I

needed to succeed. They believed in me

and vice versa.”

This past year the Pioneers unloaded

of their talent. It took some getting

used to but obviously the work paid dividends

this season with Marengi and his

teammates thriving on the field.

“The coaches really made it work,”

Marengi said. “We couldn’t have had

the season we had and done everything

we did without them, especially coach

(Ted) Flaherty. This was his first year

serving as our offensive coordinator and

he brought a whole new offense in. I was

a bit skeptical at first, but it ended up fitting

perfectly with the players we had.”

The decision to attend Endicott wasn’t

an easy one, but staying closer to home

in Beverly and joining a handful of recent

Lynnfield grads who have continued

their athletic career with the Gulls, including

Clayton’s brother Cooper, who

became a member of Endicott’s baseball

team last spring, helped make Endicott

feel like the right fit.

“The whole decision has definitely

been a little overwhelming,” Marengi

said. “I really didn’t know what I was

going to do. My junior year of high

school I definitely thought I was going

to play college baseball somewhere.

But All the support from my family, my

out. I feel like I definitely made the right

decision and I’m excited about it.”

When it comes to the football field,

Marengi believes that Gulls coach Paul

McGonagle and his staff can pick up

where Lynnfield’s coaches left off in improving

his game.

“I’ve talked with (McGonagle) and he

seems like a great guy,” Marengi said. “It

seems like a good program and the right

fit. I feel like I fit in perfectly with them.

My brother goes there and it’s close to

home. It’s the right place for me.”

Tanners honor seniors in style

By Scot Cooper

The Peabody/Lynnfield girls

hockey team took a big step

toward a league championship

with a Senior Night 5-0 win

over visiting Marblehead Sat

Saturday at McVann-O’Keefe

Arena.

With the win, the team

maintained its share of first

place in the Northeastern

Hockey League standings with

Masconomet, which defeated

Beverly/Danvers 5-3. Both

teams, which sport identical

league records of 5-1-1 coming

into the regular season homestretch,

have two games left

in the regular season. Peabody

will play Beverly, which it beat

3-1 in their first meeting on Feb.

6 and will also play Winthrop at

Larson Arena on Feb. 12, while

the Chieftains have games remaining

against Medford and

Marblehead.

Prior to the start of the

Marblehead game, the team

honored its three seniors; North

Reading’s Sammie Mirasolo,

who will be studying management

at the University of

Massachusetts at Amherst;

Carolyn Garofoli was among

the seniors honored Saturday.

North Reading’s Jeny Collins,

who will attend the University

of Vermont where she will

be studying history, and

Lynnfield’s Carolyn Garofoli

who will be heading to the

University of New Hampshire

where she will play field

hockey.

Peabody coach Michelle

Roach said she was glad all of

her seniors contributed to the

win.

“Those girls have been with

the program for four years, and

they’ve helped us get to where

we’ve gotten as a team,” she

said.

There were long stretches

where the action was pretty

even between, particularly

in the first period when

Marblehead held its own. Both

teams had plenty of scoring

opportunities, but Collins (28

saves) and Marbleheader goalie

Avery Olsen (38 saves) each

made a few big saves to keep

the game scoreless through the

first 15 minutes of play.

Peabody picked up the pace

in the second period. With a

player from each side in the penalty

box, Reilly Ganter scooped

up a loose puck and swished it

past Olsen about four and a half

minutes in to put Peabody on

top, 1-0.

Three minutes later the

Tanners doubled up the lead

when Ella McTeague took a

pass from Catherine Sweeney

and buried it. Mirasolo capped

the period’s scoring, with an assist

credited to Paige Thibedeau,

to make it a 3-0 game with one

period to go.

Peabody added a couple of

insurance goals in the third

period, the first from Hannah

Gramko (from Mirasolo). Jen

Flynn added an unassisted

short-handed goal with 56 seconds

remaining in the game.

Roach said she was pleased

with her team’s effort.

“We’ve been doing good

things with the puck, we’re not

just going through the motions,”

Roach said. “We did a good job

on coverage, where 9-5-1, and

now we get ready for Medford

Wednesday.”

Marblehead High coach Ryan

Wood said the team had a big

first period, and acknowledged

that Peabody really picked it up

in the second period.

“As the play went on, we kind

of second guessed ourselves,

we’re young and we’re going

to get better, we’re competitive

but we need to be a little more

competitive,” Wood said. “This

is a grind, this time of the year,

the girls played a really disciplined

game, the sky is up for

these guys, we’re taking our

lumps, but we’ll get better.”

Wrestlers have turned a corner

By Anne Marie Tobin

After several disappointing

seasons with a common theme —

an inability to fill enough weight

class divisions to successfully

compete — the Lynnfield/North

Reading team has turned a corner

as the all-important tournament

season approaches.

LNR had its best finish in five

years at the Cape Ann League/

Northeastern Conference championship

meet Saturday at

Gloucester High School. The

Pioneers finished third out of 12

teams with 11 points.

Beverly won the meet with

152 points, while Marblehead/

Swampscott finished second with

125 points.

“We had an outstanding day,”

said coach Craig Stone. “Nine of

the eleven wrestlers we brought

won matches and scored valuable

team points. We were

only outscored by Beverly and

Marblehead-Swampscott both

Northeastern Conference teams.

Being the top CAL school at

the tournament was quite an

accomplishment.”

“This year has been a bounceback

year all year long,” said

Stone. “It’s a tribute to the kids

who have hung in there these last

few years.”

Next up for the Pioneers is the

Haverhill Tournament this Saturday.

The Black and Gold close out the

regular season with a non-conference

match against Danvers at the

high school on Wednesday, Feb. 12.

After that, it’s on to the Division 2

North tournament at Masconomet

Saturday, Feb. 15.

The Division 2 State

Championship meet will be held

at Milton High School Friday and

Saturday, Feb. 21-22 , while the

All State Championship meet will

be held Friday and Saturday, Feb.

28-29 at Methuen High School.

CAL/NEC Championship

Timmy Leggett (132 pounds) and

Stuart Glover (138 pounds) picked

up first-place finishes. Leggett did

not place last year due to an injury,

while Glover was fourth. Both

wrestlers finis hed the day 3-0.

Sean McCullough (182 pounds)

came in second.

All three wrestlers earned CAL

All-League honors as did Brandon

Ouellette, who finished third

overall at 220 pounds. Stone was

named the CAL Coach of the Year.

Leggett’s road to the finals

began with two pin wins in the first

two rounds, but he needed to go

the distance in the final, defeating

Troy Forgitano of Georgetown/

Ipswich 8-3 to take the title. The

win exacted a piece of revenge

for Leggett, who lost to Forgitano

at the Wakefield Lisitano tournament

earlier this season.

Like Leggett, Glover pinned

his first two opponents to advance

to the final against Jack Rivers of

Beverly. With the match tied at 2-2,

Rivers illegally body-slammed

Glover to the mat to award the

match to Glover by injury default.

McCullough also advanced to

the final with two pins, but came

up against the No. 1 ranked wrestler

in the state in Danvers’ Russell

Canova. McCullough pushed the

match into the third period only to

lose by pin at the 4:40 mark.

Stone said the two will likely

have an opportunity for a rematch

in two weeks at the Division 2

North Sectional meet.

Nik Marotta (3-1) got his first

CAL/NEC place finish with a

third place effort at 160, while

Gerry Callagy (3-1, 170 pounds)

and Ouellette (3-1, 220 pounds)

followed suit at 170 pounds.

Other Pioneers winning

matches were Christian Real-

Costa at 113 pounds, Cam

Randozzo at 145 pounds and

Ryan McCullough at 152 pounds.

LNR 36,

Georgetown/Ipswich 21

At Lynnfield Jan. 29, the

Black and Gold picked up its

14th dual meet win.

Matt Lombardo (132 pounds),

Randazzo (145 pounds),

Marotta (160 pounds), Dan

Ryan (170 pounds) Giovanni

Colucciello (182 pounds) and

Greg Camier (220 pounds) won

matches for Lynnfield.

Lynnfield icemen recover in time

By Daniel Kane

PEABODY — For many stretches

of Saturday’s Cape Ann League boys

hockey matchup with Amesbury it

looked as if it just wasn’t Lynnfield’s

day.

But when the Pioneers needed it most,

they got the job done in the third period

to earn a 3-1 win at McVann-O’Keefe

Rink, qualifying for the state tournament

in the process.

“Amesbury is a vastly improved team

since we played them in the beginning of

the month (a 3-1 win),” Lynnfield coach

Jon Gardner said. “So hats off to their

coaching staff and their kids. Obviously

it’s a product also of us. We just can’t

seem to start the game on time. Our first

periods are abysmal. Just getting outworked,

outshot, outhit; and (Amesbury)

is quicker to every foot race. That was

problematic.”

The Pioneers (9-5-2) have already

qualified for the tournament but are

looking to close out the regular season

on a positive note and head into the postseason

with momentum.

It won’t be easy, however, as three of

the Pioneers final four games are on the

road.

On Friday, the Pioneers travel to Henry

Graf Rink to take on Newburyport (4).

Feb. 12, the team plays archrival North

Reading at Kasabuski Rink in Saugus

(5:10), then the Pioneers close out the

regular season at Talbot in a non-league

contest against Gloucester (6).

Despite the prospect of a couple

of long bus rides, Gardner is full of

optimism.

“The Graf is the only true house of

horrors for us,” he said. “We have beaten

Triton and tied several times up there

and as recently as last year were 1-1.

We’ve been successful at Kasabuski and

up until this year have always practiced

there. And at Talbot, we have had lost of

success and our loss there last year was

our first ever.”

Against Amesbury, Jack Hammersly,

Danny Mack and Ronnie Tashjian

By Anne Marie Tobin

As the regular season is

winding do wn and the tournament

season is approaching, the

Lynnfield girls basketball team

may be peaking at just the right

time.

For much of the season, the

team was at or below the .500

mark, but now the Pioneers

seem to have found their

momentum.

It all started Jan. 24 when

the Pioneers upset mighty

Masconomet 37-35, thanks

to a Grace Klonsky coast-tocoast

layup at the buzzer. The

Pioneers had not beaten the

Chieftains since 2003 and the

win most definitely injected

some life into a team that had

struggled to find the right chemistry,

both on and off the court.

The Pioneers are looking

to close out the final four

games of the regular season

on a high note heading into the

Division 3 North tournament.

scored one goal each. Goalkeeper Jake

Debenedictis (27 saves) helped steal this

one with a bounce-back performance.

“He was real solid,” Gardner said. “He

didn’t make anything look too spectacular

because he was square, seeing the puck

well and controlling rebounds. That’s

great for him because he had a little bit

of a hiccup last week. His first signs of

showing some chinks in the armor. But he

bounced back which is huge.”

Lynnfield’s penalty kill also once

again proved to be a big strength, killing

off four Amesbury power plays.

“Taking penalties hurts but our penalty

kill has been solid all year,” Gardner

said. “That’s huge. Having to kill a lot

of penalties you can’t get your offense

going, can’t get your forecheck going or

get a flow. It kind of wears down some

it’s on to Manchester-Essex,

a team the Pioneers beat the

first time around, 44-33, Feb.

9. Lynnfield will then travel

to Hamilton-Wenham Feb. 11,

then will close out the regular

season at Newburyport Feb. 13

where it hopes to complete a

season sweep.

“We have had our arguments

this year, but the Masco game

probably was the first time all

year we really played as a team,”

said Klonsky, a junior captain.

“I think that will go a long

way to help turn our season

around and focus on being more

positive and together.”

Lynnfield 42, Melrose 23

Sunday afternoon at Melrose,

the Pioneers ran their winning

streak to four games with

a win over the Red Raiders.

Senior captain Tori Morelli led

all scorers with 19 points and

added 12 rebounds to complete

another double-double.

Klonsky had nine points, while

junior Caroline Waisnor had

seven points. Sophomore Riley

Hallahan (3 points), junior Ava

Buonfiglio (2 points) and sophomore

Lucy Cleary (2 points)

also scored. The Pioneers improved

to 8-6.

Lynnfield 42, N. Reading 41

Friday night at home, the

Pioneers blew a 10-point lead

in the fourth quarter and trailed

41-40 with under a minute to

go, but two free double-bonus

throws by Waisnor with one

minute left proved to be the

difference.

Lynnfield still led by five,

40-35, with 1:14 to go, but

North Reading converted three

of four free throws after a personal

foul and technical foul to

make it a one-possession game.

With possession because of the

technical, North Reading took

of your better players too. Unfortunately

some of our top guys kill penalties. They

do a great job of it so it kind of takes

away their legs for 5-on-5 action.”

Despite being outplayed in the first

15 minutes, a 12-save period from

Debenedictis allowed the Pioneers to escape

the first period with a 1-0 lead.

Hammersly’s shot from the point took

a friendly Lynnfield bounce and found

the back of the net with just five seconds

left in the period to put the Pioneers

ahead 1-0.

Amesbury got it back in the second.

Debenedictis made a pad save but the rebound

went directly to an Amesbury forward

who scored to tie things up at 1-1.

Three straight Lynnfield penalties

kept Amesbury on the offensive the rest

of the period but Lynnfield’s penalty kill

the lead, 41-40, after banking

in a long three-pointer from the

corner.

Waisnor was intentionally

fouled on the next possession,

and she calmly drained both attempts

to give the Pioneers the

lead for good.

Cate MacDonald sealed the

win when she grabbed a loose

ball with under nine seconds

to go and tipped it into the

backcourt.

Waisnor, Morelli and

Buonfiglio scored nine points

each to lead the Pioneers.

Klonsky (7 points), MacDonald

(3 points) and Missy Morelli (2

points) also scored.

Lynnfield 43,

Manchester-Essex 33

The Pioneers survived a slow

start and — thanks to another

dominant effort from Morelli

(14 points, 15 rebounds) and a

rock-solid game by Buonfiglio

(seven rebounds, five points,

two steals) coming in off the

was flawless.

The Pioneers missed out on a power

play chance early in the third but they

cashed in a few minutes later. Mack’s

one timer lit the lamp this time and put

Lynnfield ahead 2-0 with just over 11

minutes remaining.

With some of their top skaters worn

down from the penalty kill, Lynnfield’s

third line stepped up. Tashjian skated to

a 2-on-1 with linemate Sean Robbins

and buried the shot to add a huge insurance

goal.

“That’s a great job by our third line,”

Gardner said. “Robbie went on the

2-on-1 and finished with his head up.

That gave us some breathing room,

which is appreciative because I’d rather

have years added to my life then taken

off.”

bench — had just enough game

to pull out a win.

“It was kind of a scary one,

but we managed to pull it out,”

said Lynnfield coach Peter

Bocchino. “Tori is on a roll and

had another monster game, and

Ava came in and was great off

the bench with some key rebounds

and hoops for us.”

Klonsky finished with nine

points, three steals and three rebounds,

while MacDonald also

had nine points to go along with

10 rebounds. Waisnor finished

with five points.

“Coming off such a big win

at Masco, we may have been

overconfident,” said Morelli.

“We said all week long that we

needed to emphasize the fact

that Manchester is a good team,

but we may still have been on

a high. Once the second quarter

came, we stopped thinking

about that last game and focused

on what we needed to do

to win this game.”
